Seven Habits of Fit and Healthy
People is an interactive
ebook containing valuable information
about how you can improve your health, fitness and wellbeing. It includes a range of health assessments and health audits.
By the time you've read and digested
it you will have a good snap-shot of how your life is going
particularly as it relates to
the
function of key body systems
physical
fitness
food
and chemical intake
your
ability to handle both the internal and external
stresses of life
your
ability to distract yourself from being busy and
miserable.
Because most people who read the
book do so as part of a corporate health management program, the
book has a definite corporate flavor about it. This is because if
people are not fit and healthy there is a productivity drain in the
workplace, one that in my experience is exceptionally high in many
organisations.
The book contains a number of health

The approach taken has been
underpinned by a number of principles:
|
|
Most people suffer from
lifestyle related and personally generated body system,
dysfunctions, not diseases. That's the bad news. The good
news is that if a body system dysfunction has been
personally generated there's a fair chance it can be
personally ungenerated. |
|
|
|
|
|
Small problems are easier to
fix than big problems. |
|
|
|
|
|
The body is an ecosystem and
all its parts are intimately involved in determining your
health status. |
|
|
|
|
|
Motion starvation and a poor
diet are the major causes of 80% of the body system
dysfunction Western communities. If everyone kept themselves
fit and healthy to the best of their ability,
communities would save themselves trillions
of dollars |
|
|
|
|
|
The Lifestyle Prescription
stands head and shoulders above all other prescriptions for
keeping yourself fit and healthy. |
|
|
|
|
|
In our culture it's a big
ask expecting to stay healthy without keeping yourself fit. |
|
|
|
|
|
It's an even bigger ask
expecting your body to get better by having someone do
something to you. Sooner or later you have to do something
for yourself.

Symptom-masking junk
medicine doesn't seem to be the best way of dealing with the
everyday, lifestyle-related, personally induced body system
dysfunctions that people experience year in, year out. For
instance, just ask yourself what's the best way to prevent
or treat high blood pressure, adult onset diabetes,
headaches, insomnia, musculo-skeletal dysfunction, reflux,
irritable bowel, anxiety ... ? It's not a tablet, a creme, a
syrup or a suppository! |

You have chosen to be your
current level of health and fitness. You can choose to be
fitter and healthier. |
